Alternative Classifications

This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.

6205.20.20Higher: 39.7% vs 12.5%

If sold separately without matching lower body garments

Separate shirts of man-made fibers fall under men's shirts heading 6205, not ensembles, as they lack the required set presentation for retail sale.

6210.20.50Higher: 27.1% vs 12.5%

If features pockets below waist or ribbed waistband

Garments with such features are excluded from Chapter 62 ensemble provisions per notes to 6205/6206 and classified as other men's garments.

6204.62Higher: 29.1% vs 12.5%

If designed for women's right-over-left closure

Closure direction determines gender per Chapter notes; women's ensembles use 6204 for artificial fibers.

Import Tips & Compliance

• Verify the ensemble is put up for retail sale with matching components of identical artificial fiber fabric to avoid reclassification as separate shirts under 6205

• Provide detailed packing lists showing set composition and fiber content labels (at least 67% artificial fibers) for CBP verification
